I don't believe that Steamboat has a mask requirement for guests.

Actually, Steamboat re-instated a mask required for indoor venues a week ago. Otherwise my friend from DC wouldn't have commented the way she did.

Steamboat Resort now requiring masks indoors

I usually didn't bother to mask up when using the larger restroom at Wolf Creek. At least not midweek when there was rarely more than a few other women around and they weren't staying long.

Dang Okie boarders.

So in reality the Best answer is g.
Ya didn’t have tricky BS multiple guess questions either, just sayin.

The one above is BS multiple guess question.
Do I win a prize?

Tis better to test ones knowledge of a subject using non-multiple choice tests than letting BS enter into the equation.
Good for you as an educator.

You mean like Hochul declaring a state of emergency in NY?

Nope.
